The book "Biomechanics in Sport and Exercise" is not just a collection of abstract rules, but above all a tool enabling students to independently discover the laws of biomechanics through observation. By analyzing everyday activities, students can build important explanations themselves, resulting in a deeper understanding of the underlying mechanical laws. The clear and repetitive structure makes it easier for the reader to use the textbook, and each chapter begins with a list of objectives and an opening scenario leading to questions that the reader can answer after reading and understanding the material presented in the chapter.

The text of each chapter contains practical examples illustrating the concepts discussed. Selected problems and procedures for their solution are presented step by step. Tasks and review questions are at the end of each chapter to check whether the reader has understood the material covered in it. The graphic design and diagrams facilitate understanding of the mechanics of phenomena occurring in the real world. 200 review questions and 120 tasks enable the verification of theoretical knowledge and its practical application.

The book has 480 pages, format 270x210 mm, paperback. Published by Urban & Partner in 2021. It is an ideal textbook for students and anyone interested in sports biomechanics.
